1. We do not begin sentences with conjunctions, ''and, but, because, so''.
2. A better word to use here is "seasonal", which is used when talking about something relating to or characteristic of a particular season of the year.
3. The preposition "from" expresses where you can buy them.
4. The plural "shops" disagrees with the words in this phrase, so use the singular "shop".
5. We use plurals when talking about things in general, also use a comma to separate the clauses.
6. Use "them", which is used as the object of a verb or preposition to refer to two or more people or things previously mentioned or easily identified.
7. The singular "tree" disagrees with the words in this phrase, so use the plural "trees".
I see. What kind of fish are usually in season? Also, do you have persimmon trees at your house, or do you buy them?

I often buy yellowtails in this season and I like this fish sushi. At my parents' house garden, there are two or three persimmon trees and I used to pick persimmons when I was elementary school student.

1. The indefinite article "an" introduces words that begin with a vowel sound.
It's so cool that your parents' garden had persimmon trees! That must have been a fun experience, picking the persimmons as a kid. And it sounds like you have some special memories of eating this fruit. What was your favorite way to eat persimmons when you were a child?

When I was child, I eat persimmons without cut and just wash by water. That was very exciting for me.
